I'm always on the lookout for something new to expand my perspective and reasoning of this world. The last thing I ever want to be is sure I know anything. If we aren't stretching to the point of discomfort, then we can be certain that we are not growing. That can be hard to do in an echo chamber.
Brett Veinotte has been a good example of someone I agree with on principle but we probably also agree on all sorts of things generally. That said, I have consistently felt challenged in my beliefs by listening to his School Sucks Podcast. It is satisfying to listen to someone that I agree with and, like I said, who also keeps finding ways to make me question those assumptions.
Then along came this Thaddeus Russell guy. This guy sure does present some challenges. Brett has been having Thaddeus on The School Sucks Podcast somewhat regularly for a while now. Their conversations on the podcast have been very interesting so when I recently heard them talk about Thaddeus' own podcast, I thought I might subscribe and see what that is all about.
I listen to hours of podcasts pretty much every day and have been doing so for probably a good ten years or so by now. I have to give Thaddeus credit for doing something different and very interesting. I am only a about half a dozen podcasts into his series and the people he interviews and the way he interviews them is an experience unlike any I have had until now.
The Unregistered Podcast.
These are the dangerous people and ideas you might find yourself wondering if you should even listen to on a podcast. These are the whores, drug dealers, professionals, or seemingly ordinary people that are breaking the rules of society and conventional thought. So far, the conversations I've heard on here are very intelligent and thought provoking.
If you like something to really rattle your cage, this might be it. I hope you give it a listen.
